RE: ways to reduce recoil on Muzzleloader
This may sound stupid but it worked for me. Though I have to admit it wasn't exactly by design. Recoil used to be something I cared about until I got serious about Turkey hunting. Turkey loads kick like a sonofstitch. My suggestion is to go to the range with a shot gun and about 30-50 rounds of magnum turkey loads and have someone teach you proper shooting form. Once you get through those 50 rounds successfully there won't be much out there you can't handle.
